Luma's start and end keyframes are a game changer. With a sequence of keyframes from the original film, we can seamlessly remaster stop motion classics like "Jason and the Argonauts" as modern single-take action scenes.

THE NORTHMAN has intensely peculiar camera operation, and I'm surprised it hasn't been brought up more. You've got lots of shots like this, in which the camera seems to be reacting deliberately sluggishly and panning/tilting in a jagged and awkward way.

There's a scene in Atom Egoyan's CHLOE (2009) in which Amanda Seyfried's character casually attempts to ride a bike down a sidewalk in the middle of the winter in Toronto during a snowstorm only to wipe out after five seconds. This is, astonishingly, played as a dramatic beat.

Per the "why is THE NORTHMAN on 35 when it doesn't look texturally filmic" discourse, it's worth looking at late 00s 35mm films. Deakins is among the most telling examples here. Little-to-no apparent scrubbing of grain in the DI, but images as grainless as most Alexa films.

HOW TO WITH JOHN WILSON has got to go down as one of all-time great examples of a series ending at the exact moment where it's clear that the artist behind it is running dry on the concept but before there's any sense that it's being needlessly dragged out.

Apropos of this, here's a thread on my evolving feelings about the 'dim' panic. I could take issue the specific wording he uses, but Jay's focus on motivation and 'sourciness' is pretty much on the right track here. The focus should be on aesthetics and trends.

RLM are the only YouTube critics I’ve seen mention stuff like this. They get it.

Of course, this moment was a highly-choreographed crane shot using a remote head! (Interesting sidenote: this b-roll clearly reveals the stitch in the action in the clip posted above, which is neat!)

@mistertodd I genuinely can't figure out if these guys are joking when they post stuff like this. I want to believe this is a bit.

Saw Hopper's studies for 'Nighthawks' today; it was, in Hopper's own words, 'suggested by a restaurant on Greenwich Avenue where two streets meet', so of course we stopped by 11th and Greenwich to see the [alleged] spot that loosely inspired the painting.

Imagine having to sit through IRON MAN 32 after witnessing the doors to all the possibilities of cinema kicked open like this.

Quick disclaimer to the folks pointing this out: Why yes, of course I seriously and literally think inflation is to blame here. I'm not even joking.
